In a small bowl, mix the Cajun seasoning and brown sugar together.

Rub the seasoning mixture evenly over the chicken breasts to coat.

In a skillet or pan, heat 1 tablespoon of canola oil and 1 tablespoon of butter over medium-high heat until combined and hot.

Sear the chicken for 5-7 minutes on each side, until golden and the internal temperature reaches 165°F / 75°C using a meat thermometer.

Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside to rest for 5 minutes.

Lower the heat to medium and melt the remaining butter in the pan.

Sauté the minced garlic in the pan, scraping up any browned bits for about 30 seconds or until fragrant.

Pour the chicken broth into the pan, stirring occasionally, and let it reduce for 2-3 minutes.

Remove the pan from the heat and drizzle the sauce over the resting chicken.

Serve the chicken warm with your favorite side dishes and enjoy!
